• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I thank the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Lands, Hon. Rachael. I expected Hon. Rachael, when seconding this important Bill, to give us a sampling framework, at least, of those who participated in public participation. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: When I went through the executive summary and the entire Report, I was surprised that the land valuers were not included anywhere. When you talk about the value of the land… view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I wish she could listen. I know the Commissioner is busy. What I am raising is in line with Article 118 of the Constitution. Public participation is critical. When you do public participation, you are supposed to involve key stakeholders. When it comes to matters of land, land valuers are very critical. I was surprised that land valuers were not involved anywhere in this Report. These are the experts and the people who look at the matters of land valuation. I wish they could find a way to hear their views because they are the critical people. I went through ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Yes. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I look at things critically. I started by saluting the Committee, but the fundamental issue when you talk of valuation of land is the valuers. It is common sense. It must be written in the Report. When you go through this Report, I have gone through the executive summary, but it has not shown anywhere that a land valuer did a presentation or sent any memorandum. So, the Chair should stop misleading the House. Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar. When it comes to matters of valuation of land, land valuers are very critical. I ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Hon. Shamalla has worsened it. She is saying the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock. I do not know whether she is in Budalangi or on the Floor of the House. When you are here, we must pay attention to details. She even misled this House by saying the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock. We have no business with the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock. We are talking about the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Lands, Hon. Rachael Nyamai. If you go ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: We looked at the issue of the SGR when I was in the Public Investments Committee. Up to now, we have people who have cases of not having been compensated. This is how the NLC comes in. You realise the way people were being compensated was haphazard. With such a law in place, it is going to provide a framework that is going to guide and to bring harmony. This is what we are talking about. This is a very good law and I want to salute you for looking at the issue of the tribunal. We have cases that ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: I want to thank everyone for paying attention when it comes to matters land. When you earn a salary, the first thing you want to think of is to buy land, plot or house. You cannot exclude a house from land. That is why Hon. Shamalla - and I can see her smiling - who comes from near my village, knows very well that land is very critical. I want to mention something about the alternative compensation. I have reservations on alternative compensation. I come from Kitale and we have an organisation called the Agricultural Development Corporation (ADC). At the ... view
• 3 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to thank the Member for this Petition. But I was wondering whether it should have been a petition or a Motion, because the issues he has brought up are very critical. In any environment you do an exam, it must conform to the normal distribution curve. Once an exam has been set—and I speak with authority having been a lecturer in a serious university—it must be moderated and once it has been marked it must conform to the normal distribution curve, whereby we have few people failing and few people passing highly. The majority ... view
• 3 Jul 2018 in National Assembly: Now that nowadays we do not get good grades, it is the responsibility of the Kenya Universities and Colleges Placement Service (KUCCPS) to lower the university entry points. You must see what university entry vacancies are there. If the entry point is a C+ and people have failed, it is important to lower the entry marks. You do not even need a Motion or a petition. This is something that KUCCPS should put in place. We do not want our people to fail exams, to get Es. Where are they going to go? This is something that the Committee on ... view
